Can't see the pics Bruno !!!!!! :?:

But none the less, with all the emails I have been receieving from you I'm sure they're top class... Please see if you can photograph the tradiational antique blades in your collection and the collection of knives that you yourself own... I'm sure you have hoarded a huge collection of tactical blades by now :mrgreen:

Regards
Moin.

Yes its a Nikon D90 with the basic lens. I have a terrible tripod so spend more time trying to save the camera from tipping over.

Don't worry cause you own most of them. No horde of tactical blades. Just my old trusty Gerber LMF and my favorite folder the Spyderco Endura 4.

Yes I must get more creative with the backgrounds. I now use a bit of thermocole to direct some light on to the blade edge.

This last picture is of an amazingly small fully functional folder. Thats a five rupee coin to show scale!! One can wear it like a pendent.

Beautiful knives. From where, did you purchase these 2 knives from? How much is the length of these blades?

The first one is called the CRKT Hammond Cruiser. It has a blade length of 3.75". Its built like a tank and flips open beautifully. The second one is my all time favorite. Its called the Boker CLB Direkt. Its manufactured by Boker but designed by Chad Los Banos, who is a great designer. This one is aggressive and an all out fighter. Super light and very nice on the grip. Both are from the US.

Yes most are from my own collection and some of which I had two have passed through my hands and now belong to others.

Yes its very cute but I guess you would need to remove it if flying. Its basically like a pendent.

Thanks Rajat. Now I will try and get more creative. Maybe try and do a wallpaper for all you knife lovers!
